Histopathology of the Liver in Children With Chronic Hepatitis C Viral Infection

Fig. 2. Serum ALT levels versus histological activity index (histological grade) for three different grading schemes. P values are for the Kruskal-Wallis test with the null hypothesis that biopsies grouped by each histological activity index come from patients with the same distribution of serum ALTs. Based on the above analysis, the METAVIR grading scheme had the most significant association with serum ALT levels, followed by the Scheuer and Knodell schemes, respectively.
